I just watched a video about how farms and farm land had become a financial tool to avoid taxes that is being abused which is raising the costs and hurting farmers. And that this tax would remove it as a tax loophole and lower the value of farmland which will help farmers. And lower value means most farms will never pay the inheritance tax and pay less taxes in general

[@Tommonius]

that video is wrong. nearly every farm is above the threshold and required to pay 20% Farmers work 7 days a week to break even, they are land rich but cash poor they will be forced to sell up and Blackrock is going to buy it all up A communist government attacking the food supply and private property is nothing new.

[@Dogfacedbloke]

Was that video by the Labour Party by any chance? It is abject nonsense because it would have been the easiest thing in the world to include a clause the exempts farmed land. Labour want to buy up the countryside to achieve their Net Zero fantasy and also use it to build 20m houses for immigrants over the countryside.
